Identification.According to GATES & HANSON (2009) , B . ruficollis is recognized for presenting the metatibia completely yellow and is the only species in which the clava is white (pale yellow in some specimens here studied), differing from the other brown/black flagellomeres. Discussion. Bephrata ruficollis was previously found in Costa Rica , Panama , Venezuela , and Ecuador ( GATES & HANSON, 2009 ; NOYES, 2019 ). Now the species is reported for the first time for Brazil in Amazon rainforest in the state of Acre and Amazonas, and in Atlantic rainforest in the state of Espírito Santo , about 2.600 and 5.300 km southeast, respectively, from the type locality.
